Ribbon Princess subconsciously stroked the hilt of the sword at her waist with her left hand, feeling the touch on her fingers.

He raised his head and smiled at his companions, mainly the more sensitive Alberta and the thief player Three Legs in the team.

"This is a hidden mission I received from a down-and-out noble in Weide City. They said their family built a family treasure house in the mountains to escape the war. However, their family is now weak and unable to send anyone in to retrieve the treasure house."

"alright."

In the end, because of the generous rewards described by Ribbon Princess, his companions decided to move on.

After all, they are all players and they are here for the mission rewards.

It’s just like what the indigenous hunters in Wade City said.

Angus Bottom Mountain is indeed more dangerous in winter.

After several battles and the death of two teammates, Ribbon Princess, Alberta and Three Legs finally stepped into the depths of the Angus Bottom Mountains and came to a small valley.

"Is this right here?"

Hunter player Alberta looked around. This was a valley that was very common in the Angus Bottom Mountains, or it could be described as a mountain stream.

A spring, even in winter, flows out from the depths of the mountain stream, tinkling and donging.

But he still showed some uneasiness.

"By the way, don't you think something is wrong? There are too many monsters around, and many of them are violent."

The hunter player's condition at this time was not very good, it could even be described as miserable. His equipment was damaged everywhere and needed to be repaired, and he even lost an arm.

His summoned creatures, the dog and the bear, had already sacrificed themselves to cover their advance. Among the two teammates who died, one died in the battle when they entered the mountain stream.

"Maybe it's because of the winter."

Ribbon Lady smiled and comforted her two teammates, "The mission is complete, so our losses are nothing. Don't you want to use epic or even legendary equipment while other players are still using excellent and fine quality equipment?"

It has to be said that the content of Ribbon Princess' words made Alberta and Three Legs excited.

The two looked at each other, smiled and shrugged.

"We are players, how could we not want equipment? Otherwise, why would we play a combat profession?"

After a short rest, the three of them immediately headed towards the depths of the mountain stream.

But the deeper they went into the mountain stream, the fainter the smile on Alberta's face became, and finally he couldn't help but stop.

"what happened?"

The three-legged creature stopped and asked its companions curiously.

“The elements are so quiet around here.”

Alberta frowned. Although he was a hunter and not as sensitive to elements as a mage player, summoning magic was still magic after all.

As he was walking upstream along the spring, he suddenly discovered that his summoning magic, which was cooling down, suddenly turned black.

"It might be the magic circle left by that family to protect their treasure house."

Ribbon Girl, who was walking in front, stopped but spoke to her two companions without turning around.

Chapter 14224 Strange Material Transport Team

The citizens of Weide City were surprised to see that they did not see the foreigners who were so active in the past on the streets outside their gates when they went out today.

However, this is not the first time they have seen such a situation.

As the sun breaks through the clouds, it will gradually become stronger, bringing warm sunlight to the earth, and a new day will begin as usual.

Chris also got up early today and sat on the balcony, enjoying breakfast while looking at the city below.

The game version of Land of Hope has been updated again and is about to reach version 1.30.

For players in reality, this maintenance and update only takes an hour, but on the Hefno Road it takes a day.

But it was only one day. Without the presence of these foreigners who were now familiar and accepted by the indigenous people, the situation on the mainland continued to develop according to the predetermined destiny.

But just as Chris swallowed the cake in her mouth and was about to end her relaxing breakfast, she was thinking about whether to report to the study in the city hall, go to the college to see the research of those scholars, or go to the military camp to test the improved muskets.

She suddenly frowned.

Because a system message suddenly appeared on her task panel.

The coming dark clouds

As a lord, you are about to face a disaster that may threaten the survival of your territory. Please find the source of the disaster as soon as possible.

What's going on here?

Chris almost jumped out of her chair. She had no idea how a disaster could suddenly befall the peaceful Snow Crystal Plain.

Did Yorkshire in the south organize an army and want to launch a surprise attack on Wade City?

But Chris quickly killed the idea.

Because although the situation in the kingdom is now a powder keg,

Grand Duke Okaf, Chris, her younger brother Prince Nolan, the eldest prince Edward in the south of the kingdom, the eldest princess Emmabell and other forces have been on edge.

They were scheming against each other and forming alliances.

But both Chris and her friends, as well as other neutral nobles in the kingdom, knew very well that as long as Chris's father, the king of the kingdom, was alive.

The dark cloud of civil war hanging over the kingdom will not break out. Everyone is making preparations, but no one is ready to tear each other apart now.

So where does this disaster come from?

Chris subconsciously looked at her task panel, and sure enough, she saw that the status of the epic task, the evil power lurking in her territory, had changed.

Some people found the evil power that had been hidden in the Snow Crystal Flower Plain for thousands of years, while others were seduced by the evil god and fell.

This was the first thing Chris thought of. Was it a player?

However, the game is currently in the maintenance and update period, and it will take another day for players to return to the Hefno continent. Chris is unable to investigate the players for the time being - with hundreds of thousands of players, Chris doesn't know where to start.

The system did not give any further prompts.

This gave Chris a headache, and her pretty eyebrows were tightly furrowed.

Perhaps some of the indigenous people were involved.

While Chris was frowning and thinking, Isa and Yuni beside her noticed her condition.

"Your Highness, have you encountered any trouble?"

As Chris's personal maid and intelligence chief, Yuni immediately recalled all the information she had remembered, but was unable to analyze what special things had happened in the princess's territory recently.

"nothing."

Chris temporarily suppressed all her worries in her heart and did not speak out the unverified system prompt.

She raised her head and smiled at Yuni and Isa who were looking at her with concern, then shook her head slightly.

"The weather is nice today, and it's a rare opportunity for those noisy strangers to return to their own world for a while. Why don't we go for a walk in the streets?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

Walking on the square, I saw that the central square, which was bustling in the past with countless players walking around every moment, was unusually empty and quiet today.

Chris was a little uncomfortable for a while, but she also experienced a kind of tranquility and peace that she rarely felt in her daily life.

She led Isa and Yuni across the square and walked along the streets of Weide City.

Because winter has not yet passed, many citizens are lazily and leisurely sitting on both sides of the streets, resting in front of their homes, and chatting with their neighbors.

When they saw Chris and the other two passing by, the indigenous people would salute Chris with respect and gratitude.

"Thank you, Your Highness, the great and beautiful Princess."

Chris could clearly feel the gratitude in the gazes of the citizens living in her territory. There were even some innocent and cute children who came over to share their treasured candies with her.

The adults did not stop them, but just smiled and watched their children do what they wanted to do but were afraid or embarrassed to do because of their status.

Some citizens even turned around and took out desserts that they usually didn't want to enjoy from home and asked their children to bring them over.

After just walking down a street, Chris and her companions, Yuni and Isa, had a lot more candies and snacks in their hands.

"I should have worn a hood."

Chris picked up a slightly rough candy and put it in her mouth, feeling a little amused. Although it was not as good as the desserts she usually enjoyed, Chris felt that this candy was more delicious.

"Your Highness, this is a token of gratitude from the people of your territory."

"Yes, of course I know."

Chris smiled and nodded, but she felt a little emotional in her heart.

Perhaps there are villains and corrupt people among the indigenous people of the Hefno continent, but there are more ordinary people like those mentioned earlier.

They will be grateful to her for the peace and tranquility she brings to their lives.

It is obvious that everything Chris has done so far is mainly to protect her own life and safety in the war that will sweep across the entire continent in the future.

This also made Chris feel a little guilty.

"Your Highness, you deserve all of this."

Although Yuni looked indifferent and didn't pay much attention to the things around her, she was very sensitive to the changes in Chris's emotions and spoke to Chris softly but firmly.

"Ah."

Chris let out a breath and a smile returned to her face.

Yuni was right, she was indeed qualified to enjoy and obtain all of this.

Although her starting point was for herself, it is undeniable that in this era when the situation in the entire Hefno continent is becoming increasingly tense.

She brought a stable and peaceful life to the people in her territory, which is why there have always been indigenous people leaving their homes and taking their families to Ved City to hide.

However, Chris also knows that there are still many people who are still waiting and watching.

Because they felt that as the princess of the kingdom, Chris would inevitably be swept up in the turmoil of the kingdom in the future.

It remains to be seen whether the Snow Crystal Flower Plain can maintain such peace and tranquility by then.

Chris took Yuni and Isa, smiling and greeting the surrounding citizens, occasionally stopping to chat with some people, while continuing to explore Vader City, which had a different style and atmosphere because of the absence of players.

Until Chris arrived at the South City Commercial Center.

The commercial center that had been built long ago can now be said to be the most prosperous area in Wade City, especially after Chris, Nolan, Liu Pei and others signed the alliance.

Although winter has not yet passed, the three parties have not yet carried out commercial trade activities with each other in accordance with the alliance.

However, in the market of the commercial center, there are still many porcelain, silk, tea and other items from Celis, as well as artworks, marble sculptures and other goods from Port Lit.

Moreover, although no chamber of commerce has officially moved into the Chamber of Commerce Street planned by Chris, some large chambers of commerce have already sent people to purchase chamber of commerce offices in advance.

What concerned Chris was that in winter, only the citizens should come with their year's savings to buy some goods that were rarely seen in the Wade City area for their families.

But now she saw a group of trucks on the street at the entrance of the market.

The convoy stopped in front of a large store, where many store clerks and members of the truck team were loading supplies onto the carriages.

"Have any caravans braved the heavy snow to come to Weide City to trade recently?"

Chris asked Yuni curiously.

"Your Highness, as far as I know, there is none."

Yuni immediately shook her head, then carefully observed the supply transport team. She saw a coat of arms on the trucks.

"This is the Morris family's supply team."

The head maid immediately found some information about the Morris family in her mind and told it to Chris.

This family was once a military aristocratic family in the kingdom. Due to their merits in the war between the kingdom and the Xiuzes Empire, they were granted the northern border of the kingdom.

It used to be an ordinary family in the kingdom, but it was pretty powerful.

It’s just a pity that it seemed that the family was involved in a political struggle within the kingdom, and small nobles like the Morris family were naturally swept up in the storm and suffered heavy losses.

In the end, it became a small family in Wade City.

Having lost their territory, the entire family can only talk about their past glory.

Chris nodded to indicate that she understood, and immediately continued to ask curiously.

"I see they're loading weapons and equipment onto the carriage. What are they planning to do?"

"It seems that the head of the Morris family, Baron Mickey, feels that with the arrival of foreigners, opportunities will arise in this era. He wants to restore the Morris family to its former glory."
